Definitions
- the present invention belongs to the technical field of polymer composite materials, in particular to a fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper with high fiber content and a manufacturing method thereof, which is applied in the fields of heavy loading railway, high-speed railway, ordinary railway, light rail, subway, ordinary plank road, etc.
- a railway sleeper is one of the railway accessories that plays a vital role in railway construction.
- the railway sleeper is used to bear the train load, transverse and longitudinal horizontal forces transmitted from the rail, and transmit them evenly to the track bed or steel beam; meanwhile, the railway sleeper is also used to maintain the rail direction, gauge, position, etc. Therefore, the railway sleeper is required to have sufficient strength, rigidity and durability, and the size of the railway sleeper is required to be convenient for the fixation of the rail, having the ability to resist longitudinal and transverse displacement of the rail track.

- A railway sleeper is one of the railway accessories that plays a vital role in railway construction. In the rail structure, the railway sleeper is used to bear the train load, transverse and longitudinal horizontal forces transmitted from the rail, and transmit them evenly to the track bed or steel beam; meanwhile, the railway sleeper is also used to maintain the rail direction, gauge, position, etc. Therefore, the railway sleeper is required to have sufficient strength, rigidity and durability, and the size of the railway sleeper is required to be convenient for the fixation of the rail, having the ability to resist longitudinal and transverse displacement of the rail track.
- At present, railway sleepers mainly include reinforced concrete railway sleepers and wooden sleepers. The mass of reinforced concrete railway sleeper is great. When prefabricated in the factory, the reinforced concrete railway sleeper needs to be embedded with plastic sleeves, and it is impossible to achieve on-site drilling for installation. Due to the requirements of high precision for the pre-embedded plastic sleeves, it is difficult to achieve close cooperation between the fastening systems and the rails. Especially in the turnout area, the error of pre-embedded plastic sleeve in the railway sleeper is prone to waste product, manpower and material resources. Moreover, the rigidity of the reinforced concrete railway sleeper is too large. The reinforced concrete railway sleeper does not have the shock absorption effect, and harms such as cracks, etc. are even prone to occur after long-term operation of the train, threatening driving safety and requiring regular maintenance and replacement, thereby increasing management costs. The production of wooden sleepers requires a large number of high-quality hardwoods. The wooden sleepers are impregnated with creosote to improve their corrosion resistance, but the use of the chemical preservative to treat the wooden sleepers has negative effects on the environment and the health of workers. Wooden sleepers are prone to suffer from corrosion in the natural environment such as sun, rain, etc., thus cracks, flaws and holes occur. During the operation, the fastening rail spikes are easy to loosen and need to be maintained and repaired regularly, and after about 5 to 10 years, they must be replaced, which greatly increases the management cost of the railway sleepers. On one hand, the supply of high-quality wood for manufacturing railway sleepers is declining, on the other hand, as the volume of transportation, the time and labor costs is increasing, the cost of maintenance and replacement of wooden sleepers is increasing.
- With the improvement of people's environmental awareness, the control of construction cost, and the requirements for fast, safe and comfortable travel, composite railway sleepers will gradually replace the wooden sleepers, and will even be widely used in the ballast area.
- At present, research on composite railway sleepers has begun in China and abroad. For example, the recycled waste plastics are used to make railway sleepers in United States, waste tires are used as the main material to make railway sleepers in South Korea, research on railway sleepers are mainly made of sawdust, and ongoing in Russia, research on hollow glass fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) railway sleepers are ongoing in India and China, and composite railway sleepers are made of polyurethane foam and fiberglass in Japanese and China. Although performance, such as the corrosion resistance, etc., of these composite railway sleepers are superior to those of wooden sleepers, the comprehensive properties such as strength, fatigue resistance, anti-pulling strength of the rail spike, gripping ability of the rail spike and anti-shearing property cannot meet the requirements of China Railway for composite railway sleepers. For example, the composite railway sleepers made of recycled waste plastics meet the requirements on the strength, but brittle fracture occurs in the fatigue resistance test. The hollow FRP railway sleepers meet the requirements on the strength, but anti-pulling strength of the rail spike thereof is less than 3 t, far less than the technical requirements of the anti-pulling strength of the rail spike greater than 6 t, and cracks occur in the fatigue resistance test. Serious collapses occur in the fiber-reinforced polyurethane composite railway sleepers produced in Japan and China during the fatigue performance test, thus the fiber-reinforced polyurethane composite railway sleepers are not suitable for use in ordinary railways and heavy loading railways in China, and are only suitable for use in light rails and subways at home and abroad. The above composite railway sleepers cannot achieve all the performance requirements of the railway sleepers.
- The polyurethanes used in the fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleepers from Japan and China are formed by reacting polyether polyol with isocyanate. The used polyether polyol has high functionality. The reaction time and curing rate of the polyurethane are fast, and the curing is almost completed in about 3 minutes. Moreover, the selected polyether polyol has high viscosity and poor fluidity. Thus, the problem of uniform impregnation of polyurethane and fiber before the polyurethane is cured is difficult to be solved. Therefore, the fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleepers currently produced at home and abroad have low fiber content, uniform impregnation of polyurethane and fiber, high local polyurethane content, large foam pores, high local fiber content, and drying yarn phenomenon, thus resulting in low and uniform strength, and unstable quality. During the production process, the resin foam expansion produces a large amount of casting fin due to low fiber content and high resin content thereof, which not only causes waste of the product, increases the production cost, but also causes great damage to the equipment and the mold. Moreover, because the problem of impregnation of polyurethane and reinforcing fibers cannot be solved, it is impossible to produce fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleepers with relatively high fiber content, and even more impossible to produce fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleepers with relatively high fiber content and high fiber density. At present, the fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleepers having a density higher than 840 kg/m3 and a fiber content higher than 60% have not been reported and available on the market.

- The present invention further relates to a method for manufacturing a fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper with high fiber content. A fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite board with high fiber content which comprises a polyurethane resin as a matrix material and a fiber as a reinforcing material is first prepared and then processed. With parts by mass, a formulation of the polyurethane resin and the mass ratio of the polyurethane resin to the reinforcing fiber are as follows:
Polyether polyol A having a hydroxyl value of 400 - 480 and a functionality of 1 - 3 90 - 95 parts Polyether polyol B having a hydroxyl value of 60 - 160 and a functionality of 1 - 2 5 - 10 parts Flame retardant 5 - 15 parts Hard foam stabilizer 2.5 - 5 parts Coupling agent 5 - 15 parts Catalyst 0.1 - 1 part Foaming agent 0.1 - 1 part Antioxidant 0.25 - 1 part Ultraviolet screening agent 0.25 - 1 part Isocyanate 100 - 135 parts Reinforcing fiber 420 - 2000 parts - Optionally, the obtained fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper with high fiber content has a thickness of 100 mm - 400 mm, a width of 200 mm - 400 mm, and a density of 200 kg/m3 - 2000 kg/m3.
- The fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper with high fiber content of the present invention has the following advantages.
- By using a mixed polyether polyol having a low hydroxyl value and a low functionality, the reaction activity of the polyurethane is reduced, the curing time of the polyurethane is prolonged, and the impregnation time of the polyurethane and the fiber is increased. Moreover, the polyether polyol used has a low viscosity and good fluidity, increasing the impregnation ability thereof with the fiber to make the impregnation with the fiber more uniform.
- By increasing the coupling agent, the wettability and dispersibility of the filler in the polyurethane are greatly improved, the impregnation ability and the bonding ability of the polyurethane with the fiber are increased, the resin and the fiber are impregnated more thoroughly, the impregnation speed of the polyurethane impregnating the fiber is improved, and the problem that the reinforcing fiber is too difficult to be impregnated is solved. Therefore, the strength of the material is greatly improved, and the strength uniformity is more stable. In addition, by adding the coupling agent, the electrical properties of the material can be greatly improved.
- By a plurality of technical means such as using the mixed polyether polyol having a low hydroxyl value and a low functionality, using a coupling agent, etc., the problem of insufficient impregnation of the polyurethane with the fiber is solved, thus the fiber content is increased, and a fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper having a density higher than 840 kg/m3 and a fiber content greater than 60% is capable of being prepared, which fills in the technical gap of fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleepers and makes a diversification of the product specifications and performance to meet various technical requirements.
- By increasing the mass ratio of the reinforcing fiber to more than 60%, not only is the production cost reduced, but also the strength of the fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper is greatly increased compared to that of the same density. The product is more compact, the water absorption and other indicators are greatly reduced, significantly improving the water resistance of the product.
- By adding a hard foam stabilizer, the problem that foam pores of the polyurethane foam are excessive large is avoided, which makes the rigid polyurethane foam more uniform and more stable.
- By adding the flame retardant, not only is the viscosity of the polyether polyol reduced to improve the fluidity thereof, but the flame retardancy of the material is enhanced.
- By adding the antioxidant, the humidity resistance and the ageing resistance of the material are enhanced.
- By adding the ultraviolet screening agent, the performance of the material in resistance to ultraviolet, sunlight and aging are further enhanced.
- By increasing the short-cut fiber, the material is more compact, and the strength of the product is further improved; and by increasing the fiber felt, the anti-bending strength of the product is further improved.
- By manufacturing the high-fiber-content fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway board and forming by the method of bonding, the manufacturing method and process of the composite railway sleeper is simplified. The specifications and models of the composite railway sleepers are increased without increasing the investment of the mold. The problem that the polyurethane is too difficult to impregnate due to excessive fibers in the integrated molding is effectively solved. Meanwhile, composite boards of various densities can be manufactured to diversify the density of the composite railway sleeper, thereby diversifying the strength and meeting the requirements of composite railway sleepers for trains at different axle loads in railway transportation.
- The comprehensive performance of the fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper with high fiber content of the present invention is far superior to that of the wooden sleeper, and the strength, anti-fatigue performance, anti-pulling strength of the rail spike and anti-shearing strength are far superior to the composite railway sleepers currently studied at home and abroad.
- The fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper with high fiber content provided by the present invention can effectively replace the current high-quality wooden sleepers and composite railway sleepers of other materials studied at home and abroad, and can be widely used in heavy loading railways, high-speed railways, ordinary railways, light rails and subways.

- By increasing the mass ratio of the reinforcing fiber to more than 60%, not only is the production cost reduced, but also the strength of the fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper is greatly increased compared to that at the same density. The product is more compact, the water absorption and other indicators are greatly reduced, which improves the water resistance of the product.
- By manufacturing the high-fiber-content fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway board and forming by the method of bonding, the manufacturing method and process of the composite railway sleeper are simplified, and the specifications and models of the composite railway sleeper are increased without increasing the investment of the mold. The problem that the polyurethane is too difficult to impregnate due to excessive fibers in the integrated molding is solved. Meanwhile, composite boards of various densities can be manufactured to diversify the density of the composite railway sleepers, thereby diversifying the strength and meeting the requirements of composite railway sleepers for trains at different axle loads in railway transportation.
- At present, no reports and material objects of the fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleeper with a fiber density higher than 840 kg/m3 and a fiber content higher than 60% have been seen. The composite railway sleeper with a density of 800±50 kg/m3 is prepared by the manufacturing method of the present invention, which is tested and compared with the material objects of fiber-reinforced rigid polyurethane foam composite railway sleepers produced by well-known domestic and foreign manufacturers. The results are shown in Table 7.

In the case where the density is almost the same, the manufactured products are far superior to the composite railway sleeper products of well-known domestic and foreign manufacturers in terms of mechanical properties, anti-UV aging properties, electrical properties, water resistance, etc., especially anti-bending properties, thread rail spike anti-pulling strength and anti-fatigue properties of the composite railway sleepers.
